What to plant now in Honolulu

USDA's planting table covers places whose average last freeze is between January 30 and June 10, and whose first freeze is between August 30 and December 20. Honolulu's frost dates fall outside it (frost is rare here), so we don't give planting dates for it.

Planting dates: USDA Home and Garden Bulletin No. 9 (1967), “Suburban and Farm Vegetable Gardens,” tables 4 and 5. How we match the table.
